Best mates shooting the breeze at Glasto, this royal visit next year is doing funny things.

Apparently Danny had an ice cream in one hand and a pint in the other.

Hes all for sustainable farming and cultivation.

Will there be a question from the DUP in Parliament?

interesting comment from Morrison about 'line drawn through the past' and Sinn Fein opposition to the old dear visiting the Republic.

Fox why is it interesting? Danny was in a foreign country, whose heir to the throne was also there. Had it been in any of Ireland's still-annexed 6 counties then the former would have had a point to squabble.

It was interesting because Danny said about 'drawing a line under the past' regarding the royal family but Sinn Fein's opposition to the visit is all about the past. I actually am against the visit as Ireland is not yet free but Danny's remark contradicted a lot of remarks from Sinn Fein people the last few days.
